Everything with distortion if it?s possible?

    Dm                                      Gm
?Sleep when I?m dead you angels
       Dm                                   Am
I?ll sleep when I?m dead? I said
       Dm                                    Gm
?Sleep when I?m dead you angels
       Dm                                   Am
I?ll sleep when I?m dead? I said
       Dm                                   Gm
?Sleep when I?m dead you angels
       Dm                           Am  (let ring)
I?ll sleep when I?m dead
                       Dm (let ring)
But until then? ?

D5                                          G5
They told me I would live forever
(F5)               D5         (F5)  A5
If I kept it clean
D5                                           G5   (F5)
They said I would be the chosen one
   D5                             (F5)  A5
If I took one for the team


D5                  G5   (F5)         D5             (with guitar riff if you want)
Yeah it?s the only way to be
(F5)                  A5  D5
Never think it isn?t fair
                G5            (F5)     D5
That?s a green eyed panic climb
            (F5)        A5
To the edge of nowhere

F5                          E5
Give it to the chicken
D5    F5     E5   C5
And see if it ticks
C5                              B5
Yeah give it to the kitten
A5    C5     B5   G5
And see if it sicks
F5                             E5  D5
Then give it to the wonderful
E5         D5 C5
Wonderful me
C5
And I will tell on my return
The way it is
D5                D#5
With all the happy boys and girls
D5            G5         (F5)         D5
Yeah the whole h-h-happy world
              (F5)          A5          D5
And the love they feel for me
                G5          (F5)        D5      A5 (LET RING)
Yeah the love they feel for me
?Sleep when I?m dead
You angels
I?ll sleep when I?m dead? I said
?Sleep when I?m dead
You angels
I?ll sleep when I?m dead? I said
They told me I could run the world
If I kept it quiet
They said I could be the man
If I took it out of sight
In a monkey suit again
Having fun with all your friends
How a casual hour can pull
All this world to pieces
Give it to the bunny
And see if she kicks
Yeah give it to the puppy
And see if he sticks
Then give it to the wonderful
Wonderful me
I?ll let you know when I get back
Just how it is
With all the other boys and girls
Yeah the whole f? f?
Other world

And the way it stirs inside
And the why it never burns at night
And the way they make the climb
And the why they never pray for time
And the way I show surprise
And the why I never close my eyes
Yeah just how it is?
?Sleep when I?m dead you angels
I?ll sleep when I?m dead? I said
?Sleep when I?m dead you angels
I?ll sleep when I?m dead? I said
?Sleep when I?m dead you angels
I?ll sleep when I?m dead? I said
?Sleep when I?m dead you angels
I?ll sleep when I?m dead
But until then? ?
Well?
I should at least feel tired I think
Before I lay me down to dream
